how to solve this 0.00880=log(500\pf) here pf =500\1.02 now i dont know how this 1.02 comes plz tell to solve this log and antilog

Explanation:
by working through some examples.
Solving exponential equations of the form a\cdot b^x=da⋅b
x
=da, dot, b, start superscript, x, end superscript, equals, d
Let's solve 5\cdot 2^x=2405⋅2
x
=2405, dot, 2, start superscript, x, end superscript, equals, 240.
To solve for xxx, we must first isolate the exponential part. To do this, divide both sides by 555 as shown below. We do not multiply the 555 and the 222 as this goes against the order of operations!
\begin{aligned} 5\cdot 2^x&=240 \\\\ 2^x&=48 \end{aligned}
5⋅2
x

x
=240
=48
Now, we can solve for xxx by converting the equation to logarithmic form.

(48)=xlog, start base, start color #11accd, 2, end color #11accd, end base, left parenthesis, start color #e07d10, 48, end color #e07d10, right parenthesis, equals, start color #1fab54, x, end color #1fab54.
And just like that we have solved the equation! The exact solution is x=\log_2(48)x=log

(48)x, equals, log, start base, 2, end base, left parenthesis, 48, right parenthesis.

Since 484848 is not a rational power of 222, we must use the change of base rule and our calculators to evaluate the logarithm. This is shown below.
\begin{aligned} x &= \log_{2}(48) \\\\ &=\dfrac{ \log(48)}{\log(2)} &&{\gray{\text{Change of base rule}}} \\\\ &\approx 5.585 &&{\gray{\text{Evaluate using calculator}}} \end{aligned}

Evaluate using calculator
The approximate solution, rounded to the nearest thousandth, is x\approx 5.585x≈5.585x, approximately equals, 5, point, 585.
